Seniors of 1957 . . . May I congratulate you on having reached this high point of achievement in your life. Graduating from high school probably is the greatest goal you have ever realized. 1n reaching this goal, you have had immense help along the way. Your parents realize how important an ed- ucation is and have encouraged you in good and difficult times. Your teachers have been a constant source of strength and inspiration. They have helped quence your thirst for knowledge; they have been your friend when you really needed friendship and understanding; they have at times illuminated your goals when they became dim; and they have offered varied suggestions for your guidance. Your education to date has developed in the greatest age of mankind. You have had many circumstances and events going in your favor. You have lived and attended school in the greatest scientific age of the world. You have been able to accept the fruits of the thinking and acting of all ages past. You have gone to modernschools and had the best teachers. You have enjoyed living in the most modern homes. You have enjoyed all the fruits of modern communication and transportation in your recreational and social living. In all of these things you have been blessed. In spite of all these blessings, you have had the greatest pressures put on your life. You live in an age in which it is difficult to sort truth from propaganda. Many organized forces, both for good and evil, gamble for your energies and abilities. You have had and will have to make decisions which will determine your usefulness to mankind. You find it often difficult to see the plan of God in the whole universe and in your own life. You can be a product of the age and sink in mediocrity or you can r1 se above the age and provide the leader- ship the world so badly needs. You can be great personalities, either worldwide or on the local scene. This is what I wish for each of you; that you develop an abiding faith in God and come to feel yourself as a son of God: that you have and Will make many friends as you go through life: that you, each one. complete your education so that you can attain great realization out of service and can take care of yourself and yours in any emergency; and that you develop a pattern of living, so you can work hard, play hard, rest well, and worship deeply. I also hope that you may live in a world of peace. Sincerely, Ralph S. Lanham, Superintendent Board of Education ROWI - Robert Z. Koski, James G. Laird, Paul E. Hakala. ROW 2 - John D. Huggins, Dr. Carl C. Pearson, William J. Harmon, Ralph S. Lanham.
